A taste of our games
Riskit
You play as adventurers who set out to gain riches from ancient treasures hidden in undiscovered areas.
Beware of the many dangers that threaten your life! Don't be discouraged too quickly if you want to get your hands on the shiny treasure, but don't be too reckless either, or you'll end up in a chest before you can say, "I'm rich!"
In this game, where everyone tries their luck – and that of the other players – there is a lot of interaction between the players, which an evening full of fun.
Grachtenpand
Grachtenpand is a lighthearted card game for 2-4 players in which you build an idyllic collection of canal houses. Build the most beautiful Amsterdam canal houses, full of shops, cats, seagulls, and of course, tulips!
The game's structure is intuitive and thematic, yet flexible enough to easily adapt to a different city or a completely different industry. This flexibility is precisely why the game has already been successfully re-released in several cities, including Montreal, Toulouse, Paris, and Kyoto, and why more versions are currently in development.
Medievallons
The beloved monarch has died, creating a power vacuum. In Medievallons, players compete to establish three guilds and dominate the capital to seize the crown. Choose your guilds wisely, each with unique powers, for a strategic and fast-paced battle. Can you outsmart your rivals and seize power?
In Medievallons, you fight to be the first to establish three guilds and harness their power to dominate the capital and conquer the kingdom! With 13 unique guild cards, players must find a balance between strengthening their own position and thwarting others. A fast, strategic, and fun game that can be played in about 30 minutes.
"You can learn more about someone in an hour of play than in a year of conversation."
